Word Similarity from Dictionaries: Inferring Fuzzy Measures from Fuzzy Graphs
Vicenç Torra, Yasuo Narukawa · International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems · 2008
The computation of similarities between words is a basic element of information retrieval systems, when retrieval is not solely based on word matching.In this work we consider a measure between words based on dictionaries.This is achieved assuming that a dictionary is formalized as a fuzzy graph.We show that the approach permits to compute measures not only for pairs of words but for sets of them.
